|D |Em |G |D |
|D |Em |G |D |
If you would’ve blinked then I would’ve, looked away at the first
|D |Em |G |D |
glance, if you tasted poison you could’ve, spit me out at the first
|D |Em |G |D |
chance, if I was some paint did it splatter, on a promising grown
|D |Em |G |D |
man, and if I was a child, did it matter, if you got to wash your hands
|D |Em |G |D |
Oh, all I used to do was pray
|D |Em |G |D |
Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve, if you’d never looked my way
|G |D |C |C |
I would’ve stayed, on my knees, and I damn sure never would’ve danced with the devil
|G |D |C |C |
At nineteen, and the god’s honest truth is that the pain was
|G |D |C |C |
heaven, and now that I’m grown, I’m scared of ghosts, memories feel like
|G |D |C |C |
weapons, and now that I know, I wish you’d left me wondering
|D |Em |G |D |
If you never touched me I would’ve, gone along with the
|D |Em |G |D |
righteous, if I never blushed then they could’ve, never whispered about
|D |Em |G |D |
this, and if you never saved me from boredom, I could’ve gone on as I
|D |Em |G |D |
was, but lord, you made me feel important, and then you tried to erase us
|Em |D |C |C |
Oh, you’re a crisis of my faith
|Em |D |C |C |
Would’ve, could’ve, should’ve, if I’d only played it safe
|G |D |C |C |
I would’ve stayed, on my knees, and I damn sure never would’ve danced with the devil
|G |D |C |C |
At nineteen, and the god’s honest truth is that the pain was
|G |D |C |C |
heaven, and now that I’m grown, I’m scared of ghosts, memories feel like
|G |D |C |C |
weapons, and now that I know, I wish you’d left me wondering
|G |D |C |C |
God rest my soul, I miss who I used to be, the tomb won’t close, stained glass windows in
|G |D |C |C |
my mind, I regret you all the time
|G |D |C |C |
I can’t let this go, I fight with you in my sleep, the wound won’t close, I keep on waiting
|G |D |C |C |
for a sign, I regret you all the time
|Em |D |C |C |
If clarity’s in death then why won’t this die?
|Em |D |C |C |
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
|G |D |C |C |
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
|G |D |C |C |
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first
|G |D |C |C |
And I damn sure never would’ve danced with the
|G |D |C |C |
devil, at nineteen, and the god’s honest truth is that the pain was
|G |D |C |C |
heaven, and now that I’m grown, I’m scared of ghosts, memories feel like
|G |D |C |C |
weapons, and now that I know, I wish you’d left me wondering
|G |D |C |C |
God rest my soul, I miss who I used to be, the tomb won’t close, stained glass windows in
|G |D |C |C |
my mind, I regret you all the time
|G |D |C |C |
I can’t let this go, I fight with you in my sleep, the wound won’t close, I keep on waiting
|G |D |C |C |
for a sign, I regret you all the time
|G |D |C |C |
Oh, god rest my soul, I miss who I used to be, the tomb won’t close, stained glass windows in
|G |D |C |C |
my mind, I regret you all the time
|G |D |C |C |
I can’t let this go, I fight with you in my sleep, the wound won’t close, I keep on waiting
|G |D |C |C |
for a sign, I regret you all the time
